Quoting Shona Thorburn:
"They're a tough team to play and not like any other team in the conference. They play defense really differently and it's something you really need to get used to. It was a great win for us. Coach (Elliott) told us to relax, have fun and play hard when we were down by five towards the end of the game. That helped us keep them off the offensive boards."
Quoting Kim Smith:
"Shona Thorburn is being very aggressive and taking the ball to the hole. It's really helping us, because she creating stuff offensively. She's getting to the basket herself and it's great. This is a huge win for us. You always want to defend your home court. It was important to get a win over a very athletic team, while combating our turnovers."
Quoting Elaine Elliott:
"We're playing hard. We're not giving up and tonight we won this game on the boards and they're such a strong team on the glass. There isn't one particular area that is strong for the team, but we find what we need to win on a given night. We cleaned up our turnovers in second half against a very athletic team. We have to understand the importance of Saturday night against San Diego State."
